Abstract

Because the present algorithms of total least squares for robust estimation have disadvantages, solution for computation primary model parameters based on median method is proposed. And to get over the influence that estimation error of random model and error of mean square has, computation weight matrix of observation vector and coefficient matrix separately are proposed. Iterative algorithm of robust total least squares is established based on median method, and to prove the proposed solution to be feasible, an instance is cited. The numerical results of the instance clearly demonstrate that the presented solution is more accurate than the traditional method for line fitting.

Key words： total least squares; robust estimation; median method
